We went to the Pain Clinic to get a prescription for Frank's pain medicine. We ate at McDonald's. It's not my favorite place to eat but they have a chicken wrap that Frank can eat, but today his wrap was just a snack and not the big wrap he usually gets. I got the regular hamburger which is okay.
Because rain was predicted for today, I filled the trunk of my car with the bags of debris from the basement. I think I took 6-7 large bags out to the road. I'll do house trash tomorrow.
I've been reading about dementia and it depresses me. I feel like I'm on a journey that I don't want to be on but there's nothing I can do about it. It will happen. In the late stages of the disease, nursing home care may be needed. I would have to sell the house to pay for it and when the funds ran out, a medicare facility would be used. I guess that's why you have children-so you will have a place to live if you have to sell your home.

About Me
- Granny's Blog
- I'm a graduate of the University of Alabama,class of '66. I majored in music, piano and organ. I taught private piano lessons in Tuscaloosa for a year and then got a teaching job in Key West, FL. There I met my husband, Frank and four months later we were married. Have lived in Athens, AL since 1976. My children grew up in Athens. My husband is bedridden now so I add the title of care taker to the title of homemaker. I never wanted to work outside the home. I enjoyed gardening until I got breast cancer in 2002. I'm not able to do much garden work now, and I miss it. I enjoy going to the Wellness Ctr. to exercise. I enjoy making greeting cards and usually make a card or two each day. I love getting together with my daughters, Trudy and Mary Kate and my grandchildren. My son, Frank, lives in Knoxville,TN, so I don't see him often. He has 4 children. I enjoy being a grandmother.
